[java code coverage] Exclusions not working in Jenkins Jacoco FT coverage

[r***@gmail.com]

Hi,

I am trying to exclude some packages and classes from jacoco coverage report, yet I see them.
I was trying to exclude **/com/module/package2/MyClass* which is a class and **/com/module/package/** which is a package.

1. I put them comma separated in Jenkins plugin for Jacoco in Exclusions box, yet I am seeing them in coverage.
In console, I am seeing though: [JaCoCo plugin] exclusions: [**/com/module/package/**, **/com/module/package2/MyClass*].

2. I also tried by putting in maven configuration,

<configuration>
<reset>${Reset}</reset>
<address>${testHost}</address>
<excludes>
<!-- exclude generated code from coverage report -->
<exclude>**/com/module/package/**</exclude>
<exclude>**/com/module/package2/MyClass*</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>

This also did not work and also did not show the console log also: It was
[JaCoCo plugin] exclusions: []

3. Putting both together also did not work.

How to achieve this exclusion?

Jenkins v: 2.69
Jacoco: 1.0.19

With Jacoco 2.2.1, the coverage was all 0 thats why I think the infra team here downgraded to eariler version.

Plugin that integrates JaCoCo into Jenkins is not developed by JaCoCo Team,
so you'd better seek help from developers of it
( https://github.com/jenkinsci/jacoco-plugin ) - they by definition should
know more about this integration.

2. I also tried by putting in maven configuration,

AFAIK specification of exclusions in configuration of jacoco-maven-plugin
affects only report generated by jacoco-maven-plugin
( http://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/report-mojo.html ) and not taken
into account by Jenkins plugin.

Exclusions are perfectly working and well tested in integrations provided
by us (JaCoCo Team) -
http://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/integrations.html , e.g. in
jacoco-maven-plugin, so as an option you can use report generated by it.
In case if you wanna use other integration and it doesn't work, such as
Jenkins Plugin, then please seek help from developers of this integration.

Thank you for your understanding.

Thanks Evgeny, was a good insight.

I tried without jenkins plugin also. But I still see the package

<plugin>
<groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
<artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.7.4.201502262128</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-cli</id>
<phase>post-integration-test</phase>
<goals>
<goal>dump</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<reset>${Reset}</reset>
<address>${testHost}</address>
<excludes>
<!-- exclude generated code from coverage report -->
<exclude>**/pkg1/subpkg1/**</exclude>
<exclude>**/pkg2/subpkg1/MyClass*.*</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>

Moreover in the HTML report generated by above, clicking columns is not
sorting, for example, by package name.

Thanks

As of today if you want exclusions to affect report generation, then you
must specify them for the report generation, i.e. "report" goal.

Sorting by package name is working as you can see on example of our own
report
